I hope that this letter find you well as you prepare to be married to me in a few short weeks.
But before we are married I must be open and honest with you. The truth is Maria, if I had it my way i would
not be marrying you at all. However, I am not yet an absolute ruler so, I must do as I am told. This marrage may infact be the worst thing
that could possibly happen to us in our short lives, but it is not all bad. You see, by marrying you it will bring me one step closer to being an absolute ruler, and its gives me power in Spain. After all, it is my childhood dream to be an abosolute ruler. So I thank you, for helping me accomplish what matters most to me.
